GROUP REPORTING CHANGES

HSBC has today published changes to the way it presents information for its four businesses and Corporate Centre relating to the transition of certain clients between business segments, which are effective from 1 January 2026.

In advance of the publication of HSBC Holdings plc's 1Q 2026 Earnings Release, the attached data pack presents the impact on the previously reported financial information of HSBC Holdings plc and its consolidated subsidiary undertakings (the 'Group') for each quarter in the years 2024 and 2025, and the full years 2024 and 2025, of the transition of certain clients, primarily from the Hong Kong and UK business segments to Corporate and Institutional Banking, as referred to on page 76 of the HSBC Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025. Such transition does not involve a change in our reportable segments.

A copy of the data pack is also available to view and download at: https://www.hsbc.com/investors/results-and-announcements/all-reporting

The data pack provides a re-presented view, for illustrative purposes only, of selected financial information for the four businesses and Corporate Centre for (i) all quarters in 2024 and 2025, and (ii) the full years 2024 and 2025. This re-presentation has no impact on and does not change the consolidated financial results or financial position of the Group. No additional adjustments have been made to this information other than to reflect the clients transitioned and all data presented is unaudited.

The Group's reported results are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRSs'), as detailed in the HSBC Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025. To measure performance, the Group also uses non-GAAP financial measures, including those derived from reported results that eliminate foreign currency translation differences between periods.

Constant currency performance is computed by adjusting reported results of comparative periods for the effects of foreign currency translation differences, which distort period-on-period comparisons.

The Group considers that constant currency performance provides useful information for investors by aligning internal and external reporting, and reflects how management assesses period-on-period performance.

The Group has based the forward-looking statements on current expectations and projections about future events. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about the Group, as described under 'Cautionary statement regarding forward-looking statements' contained in the HSBC Holdings plc Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended 31 December 2025, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ('SEC') on 26 February 2026 (the '2025 Form 20-F').
